This horse handled the dirt at Aqueduct quite impressively, IMO, in the 2010 Gotham Stakes. Saturday will see a step up in competition for Awesome Act with Eskendereya coming to town. I'm very anxious to see how Eskendereya run's in the Wood Memorial, and if Awesome Act is able to compete as well in the Wood Memorial as he did in the Gotham Stakes with the rise in competition. If both run the kind of race that they're capable of running, it should make for a very interesting 2010 Wood Memorial. IMO.
